Scouts vs. usurpers: alternative foraging strategies facilitate coexistence between neotropical Cathartid vultures

open access: yesIbis, Volume 166, Issue 4, Page 1368-1383, October 2024.
Understanding how diverse assemblages of scavengers can coexist on shared ecological resources is a fundamental challenge in community ecology. However, current approaches typically focus on behaviour at carcass provisioning sites, missing how important differences in movement behaviour and foraging strategies can facilitate sympatric species ...

Leech consumption by Leptodactylus fuscus (Schneider, 1799) (Anura: Leptodactylidae) in Pernambuco, Brazil

open access: yesHeringeriana
A interação trófica entre anfíbios e sanguessugas é predominantemente parasitária, com as sanguessugas atuando como parasitas em vários estágios de vida dos anuros. A predação de sanguessugas por anuros raramente é documentada.

Feeding en route: Prey availability and traits influence prey selection by an avian predator on migration

open access: yesJournal of Animal Ecology, Volume 93, Issue 9, Page 1176-1191, September 2024.
During fall migration, avivorous raptors and avian prey co‐occur across space and time. We used a novel approach—combining eDNA metabarcoding and eBird data—to investigate predator–prey interactions between an avivorous raptor and co‐occurring avian prey species. This approach revealed prey availability and traits influence raptor‐songbird interactions

Effects of protection and temperature variation on temporal stability in a marine reserve network

open access: yesConservation Biology, Volume 38, Issue 3, June 2024.
Abstract Understanding the drivers of ecosystem stability has been a key focus of modern ecology as the impacts of the Anthropocene become more prevalent and extreme. Marine protected areas (MPAs) are tools used globally to promote biodiversity and mediate anthropogenic impacts.

Plant phylogenetic diversity influences arthropod communities in tropical forest restoration plots

open access: yesBiotropica, Volume 56, Issue 3, May 2024.
We assessed the impact of plant phylogenetic diversity on arthropod communities in 12 experimental restoration plots with either high or low plant phylogenetic diversity. Arthropods with different feeding habits (herbivores, predators, pollinators, and detritivores) were collected after 1 and 3 years and were identified as morphospecies or operational ...

Future climate‐induced distribution shifts in a sexually dimorphic key predator of the Southern Ocean

open access: yesGlobal Change Biology, Volume 30, Issue 3, March 2024.
Climate change poses challenges for sexually dimorphic species, such as the Antarctic fur seal, where males are larger than females. By tracking individuals from both sexes, we assessed their responses to current environmental conditions and projected their future responses using various climate models. Findings reveal a sex‐skewed impact: females face
